I never read Hunger games, and I'm surprised to see how many others haven't either. I figured everyone but me had read it... as for GoT I like the books but the series is just whatever to me. I'm probably in the minority on that tho...

I think I might have to insist that you read book 1 of the Hunger games at least :-) it's just so good and having seen the movie, you'll see that (like always) the book is much better. The other two books are good, but #1 is the best IMO. I haven't read Game of Thrones either, but I saw one episode at random - I was liking it and then something happened (which I won't tell you so as not to spoil it for you) that I just couldn't handle and it kind of soured my taste to the whole series. IDK if I'll try it or not.
